1999 (8) TMI 936 - HC - VAT and Sales Tax

Summary

The High Court of Andhra Pradesh allowed the writ petition challenging a provisional assessment order for the period August 1, 1996 to March 31, 1997. The court set aside the assessment order due to the arbitrary exercise of power by the authority and directed a final assessment to be made according to law. The petitioner objected to the levy of additional tax under section 5-A when the goods had already been taxed under the substantive provisions of the Act.
